The QUEEN OE SPAIN.
Seaside Life of the Woman Who Rules the
Spaninrds for Her Baby Son.

Seaside Life of the Woman Who Rules the
spaniards for Her Baby Son.
If Queen Christina of Spain were
pretty, she would carry all before her;
unfortunately, she has the sort of COM
plexion which En"lish doctors term
roseatc-a complexion which would
ruin the effect of the most pei fectly-
modelled features. It's pity that her
hands and feet are so lcng. Don't
mind my saying so. but in their arms
and the cXtremeties of both sets of
limbs the House of Austria shows more
than traces of descent from Darwin S
common simian ancestor / dare say
it would be vast relief to the Queen
Regent if she could wear gloves when
she takes her public sea-bath. Fortu-
natcly for her, there are pockets in her
tunic, into which she sticks her fingers
and so hides their extreme length ana
sinewy anatomy. She carries sun
shade that nearly hides her face. She
gives it to the bather in the water.
and he sings it by the strings on his
arm.
The marine attire consists of lint
shoes, stockings, pantalettes of the
zouave kind, with deep frills hiding
the ankles and short tunic. For tn,
rromenade after tho bath-and hel
Majesty is frequently to be met like al
ordinary mortal walking along with q
baby Infanta clinging to each hand
she wears usually black cashmere
skirt, with horizontal bands of Grape
and casaque trimmed with Grape.
Her veil is very long. She has figure
that lends itself well to drapery, al
though the shoulders are rather high
We hear that she smokes cigarettes,
having learned to do so rs girl al
V emma. Her cousin. the Archduches
Matilda, who was to have been Queen
of Italy, was confirmed smoker, and
lost her life through thrusting tho
cigar behind her back, ON seeing m
uncle on the terrace under window
at which she was smoking. She forgo
that she had on muslin dress, which
coming in contact with it, at one,
caught fire and blazed up. This will
explain why Queen Christina has II,
objection to Ministers smoking in hel
presence at Aranjuez
The little King is jolly sort OF
baby. He is the image of Queen Isa'
bella, and enjoys being noticed and
shown to the crowd, to which he blow
kisses with pair of little, fat hands
He goes through this form of salutatior
with all his heart, and his eyes juml
out of his head with glee.-St. Sebastian

fact. But got some of my neighbors

hair ropes around it and set fire to the
